As temperatures drop, the excitement of winter sports rises. Skiing, snowboarding, ice skating... Many adults are likely to head out dressed in their favorite heavy outerwear to enjoy the extraordinary snowy world.

However, simply having a high-performance coat or jacket is not enough preparation. In fact, it is the inner layer that holds the key to comfort.

I spoke with Yukiko Tanaka, who is responsible for development at Finetrack, about the high-performance underwear "Dry Layer" that is gaining attention in the industry.

Revolutionary Concept of Wearing One Layer under Sweat-Absorbing Quick-Dry Wear

First, could you tell us about Finetrack? The brand started from a single-family house in Kobe back in January 2004, right?

It was founded as a new venture by veterans responsible for planning and development at major domestic outdoor manufacturers, along with enthusiasts who have practiced outdoor life for years.

The approach of linking the needs and seeds of "playmakers = creators" has been recognized by Hyogo Prefecture's management innovation plan, and they continue to focus on manufacturing with a commitment to Japanese-made products, emphasizing thorough safety.
